Week 36

It is hard to believe that we are at the last story in our reading series. It is an informational fiction piece called "Baboon". Parts of this story are made up but parts give information about different African animals. The phonics skill is /00/ making the sound it does in the word cool. The new vocabulary is:

against

careful

fine

quietly

shook

Questions of the Week

Monday - What was your favorite activity at Dome Day?

Tuesday - Would you like to be an astronaut?

Wednesday - Tell me 4 words with the /oo/ sound.

Thursday - Use the word against in a sentence.

Friday - Use the word quietly in a sentence.

Math for the rest of the year will be a review.

On May 25 we will be walking to Ramsey Park. Be on the lookout for a permission slip. We will leave school at about 10:30 and arrive there about 11:00. I hope some of you will be able to walk with us. The Springerville Police Department will block off the hill while we walk over it. Thanks to them for helping keep us safe!
